I found the compression a little lacking in these shorts. I much preferred compressions shorts from Moving Comfort for running.

I use them for Tennis which has a lot of short sprint running and I love them!

I use them for running and hiking. Compression good. Feel great and wash & dry quickly.

They are not exactly compression. They work very well to protect the crotch rubbing of the skin and the same shorts with skin and avoid burns when training. If they are snug, but not so much as a compression.

I just use them for my computer. And haven't used them during any movement or excercise.They seems to have a tight fit.

Yes they work well for running as they are light and compact with a fairly thick cord that doesnt tangle.

These have great compressive abilities, but I did not feel any significant thermal impact when I wore it. It does keep warm, but it was not noticeable enough for me to consider it that type of tight. Have you considered the SKINS S400/200 Women's Thermal Compression Long Tights ?

Yes, they are great. They stay in place and are comfortable for even the longest runs but remember running with any sound isolating earphones or headphones blocks out all surrounding noise which can be dangerous in cities and other areas where you should be alert.

After having them for a while, they are very good for running. But the trick is to have the stabilization tab set for your ears. I always have to readjust them for the perfect fit. As a matter of fact I just got through cutting grass and sweated pretty good. No problem with them staying in my ears. If you get them once you and play with them a while you will figure out what angle to put the stabilizer in for the perfect fit. You will also know when you got a good fit because they sound awsome! They are best I have had so far. I have LG730 and they always have a tendency to fall out after sweating, so I stopped wearing them for workouts. I think these are a good buy.

The product doesn't list compression values so your best bet is to check with your doctor. You may need to have them custom made by a medical supply company and your insurance may pay for them. One company I'm familiar with is Jobst.

I have been pretty drenched running with these and I have not had an issue (yet). I tend to sweat heavily and I've worn them for several 6-8 mile runs without issue.

I can certainly attest to their comfort and durability - I run 25-35 miles a week and they work great for me...I've worn them up to 20 miles during my last marathon training plan and they don't get annoying. I think they sound fine, but I listen to my music really low so I may not be the best judge there!

I use them when I workout, but when I run with them and sweat, sweat does get in them and I occasionally have to wipe the sweat off, but I haven't had a problem with them not working at the time, if anything just needed to remove the sweat.

Yes, they work well for running. I've had the new S9 HD for 2 mths now and I run several times a week with no problems with reception or shorting from sweat. You can wear them on your hip (= very good reception (music and phone)with little to no covering or major obstruction)) or on your arm with an armband (best reception, music and phone). I've found they work VERY well for running.

I recommend these to friends and coworkers for shin-splints. The regular compression sleeves helped to fix mine. The ultra compression sleeves would be my choice if I were running a marathon, stepping up my run distance by several miles, or only if the regular sleeves do nothing. Always try the regular compression sleeves first. They are excellent.

I have run anywhere from 1-4 miles at a time with them and had no issue. They're a great buy.

Better. I ran a 50k in the socks and my VFFs. I also wear both on runs over half-marathon distances. I found my legs feel much better over the course of a run, and I have no issues when wearing them with VFFs. In fact, I'd say I prefer their texture over regular Injinjis while wearing my VFFs.

I agree with Keith. I'm using them right now, these things are in my ears all the time. I'm not sure they'd be great for running, unless they were under a shirt, but for lifting they're fine. If you're up for the investment, I'd recommend these to anybody and everybody.

I don't run long distance, but I do run. My issues are plantar fasciitis and a neuroma, and these are very helpful. I can't run without them.
